Think of how many people have been wrongfully convicted of a crime they didn’t commit, only for it be overturned years later by DNA evidence. There was always some doubt, but there wasn’t anything available for them to show their innocence. Now think about all the men who may have raised the Milkman’s or...
In light of the recent documentary and the backlash on the Fab Five from ESPN, it made me wonder: When will the perception of certain blacks by others will change? This “Uncle Tom” view by some blacks is appalling. When did success become a slight? While everyone is looking for the “American Dream”, if...
Ok people, let’s get one thing straight: Nice guys DON’T finish last. Just because you are nice shouldn’t mean that you are weak. You can still show chivalry, have a good time on a date, and part ways if the attraction isn’t there. There is nothing wrong with testing the waters, but if she isn’t...
“You think you’re better than everyone!” “I hate when people do _____ on Facebook!” “Why did she Tweet that!” It makes me wonder why there is so much negativity about positive things in others lives. Even if it isn’t positive, who are we to argue or complain about someone’s First Amendment rights? Is social...

What a past you have. He cheated on you. She spent all your money. He beat you down. She got pregnant by someone else. There are so many things that have scarred us in our lives, but how much of this pain and hurt can we bring into the next relationship? How much can the...
Playoffs? We’re talking about playoffs? Yes we are and it looks like this has the shaping to be one of the best Divisional Rounds in a long time. Every single match is a re-match from the regular season, and both AFC Divisional match ups are a 3rd meeting between the teams. With only 2 Super-Bowl winning...
Recently, there was an article about a man who is facing 5 years in prison for checking his wife’s emails. Although I think the man will get off on such a B.S. law, it got me to thinking: What is the privacy line between spouses? Should a husband or wife be able to persecute...
‘Tis the season for the biggest turnover of new relationships and break-ups. Around this time of year, more and more people either want to be with someone or want to get rid of their lover because their time has passed. Many men and women are scorned because of what they had invested into the relationship without any...
